With 17 years of experience and security clearance for government work, I offer professional Krio interpretation services that meet the most demanding confidentiality requirements.

My bilingual upbringing in Freetown gave me native fluency in Krio, and my subsequent training in the U.S. equipped me to work as a professional interpreter across multiple specialized fields.

Conference and event interpretation is my specialty — I provide simultaneous interpretation in Krio for international summits, academic conferences, and large-scale corporate events. I am equally skilled in consecutive interpretation for smaller, high-stakes diplomatic and business settings.

I am an ATA-certified Krio interpreter and active member of the American Translators Association, committed to the highest ethical and professional standards in every interpretation assignment.

Born and raised in Freetown, Sierra Leone, I grew up speaking Krio as my first language before immigrating to the United States, where I built a career as a professional interpreter.

Immigration law is at the heart of my practice — I provide Krio to English interpretation for asylum hearings, bond hearings, removal proceedings, and attorney-client consultations. I am deeply familiar with immigration terminology and the emotional weight these cases carry.

I carry professional liability insurance, maintain strict confidentiality protocols, and treat every Krio interpretation assignment — large or small — with the same level of professionalism.
